please the number of times that Republican supporters gatecrashed the DNC? And the number of times they started screaming and heckling speakers at the
DNC??? Oh wait they were caged outside like animals to protect the civil rights of the Democrats.

A story about a Republican heckling speakers at the DNC was posted in exactly the same thread that I linked to you above. Open your eyes
man.

I was just going to post how long it will be until we found out their names. Blahoo did it for me...3 year-old Sophia Parlock and her father Phil
Parlock.

Standing smack in the middle of the opposing team.

This will make a perfect opportunity for a photo shoot of Sophia with Bush. I hope they have call waiting because Oprah, People magazine, and the
White House is trying to call.

Do you all wonder if the Bush camp would stoop low enough to allow this now-much-publicized photograph to be a planned publicity stunt? The
family seems so well-dressed and groomed compared to others in the crowd.

That guy needs to correct his immaturity. Whether he likes it or not that family is exercizing their rights. Had I been present he would have likely
received a swift kick to the forehead.

I agree with Bangin on this - the guy was out of line. Other Dems in the crowd should have "corrected' this guy's behavior. It does not matter
that it was one person among hundreds - the media will focus on him alone.

Oh you mean the guy who was assaulted by two democrats??? sorry missed that part. Thanks for pointing it out to everybody.

Taking a child to a spectacle like this, or a potential spectacle is nothing I would ever do as a mother. I suppose the child is lucky he didnt leave
her in the hot car with windows rolled up.

Exactly. However, if the dad is guilty of child abuse, then the guy who ripped her sign is guilty of assault. After all, how can it be child abuse
if there was no danger to the child?

I think the definition of a 'girlie man" is one who beats up ON a little girl (I made this change to accentuate the phrase beat up ON - in this
situation implying that he bullied and mocked a little girl, strangely enough this is why she is crying)? The little girl sits on her father's neck
with a piece of the poster and the big bully with other parts of it that he ripped up.So I think the guy with the cap on bacwards proved it, maybe he
should wear his pants backwards also.

I can only hope that Cargo is the typical Democrat vote , assuming that he is American, cause he couldn't find the place to put his mark with the
assistance of a guide dog, the mounties and a map. I am sorry if this appears to be rude but I don't appreciate his insults in the posting below.
Which he has altered a few times so far.

Nerdling: I agree with you it really is ok to tear a little girls poster? As long as other people are doing bad things also? WAIT what did this little
girl do to the guy with the flip-flop cap? Nothing.

This thread was about the treatment of a child but as always we have to read about everything else others have done because it makes the harassment of
a child better? NO!

Im no Democrat or Republican, nor American. This is an international forum and I'll comment as I please. If you want to discuss topics without
international opinion I suggest you try www.freerepublic.com.

You are the liar, you were totally insulting to me. Firstly you didn't understand the phrase and called me a liar, and secondly you said I was
totally ignorant. Your editing was to tone down your insults in case someone caught you at flaming me. I would like you to point out in the open
without editing to protect yourself how I am ignorant and in which regard?

There is this grown up who intimidated a three year old, then mocked her when she was crying? Where I come from we do not harass kids for political or
other reasons. You have the right to be wrong in your opinions (American or not) but not in your facts.

jrsdls: I applaud that union for standing up and being counted! Thanks for finding that link. It takes a man/woman to stand up and admit when
something that happened was wrong. These people are not girly men, however Mr flip-flop cap is.

I speak English.

I wouldn't bother toning down "insults". I speak as I see things. I added content to my post and made the first line clearer. If I was going to
tone down anything, it would be the use of language. I have used language before in a previous post on another thread and it was edited by a mod. I
used none in that post to you, however.

I would like you to point out in the open without editing to protect yourself how I am ignorant and in which regard?

You are ignorant in your insinuation that some of us here support this arse harassing a little girl. As for "Beat up on", text is open to
interpretation. Perhaps you should be more clear and concise when choosing your words. Afterall, this is not an American forum.

There is this grown up who intimidated a three year old, then mocked her when she was crying? Where I come from we do not harass kids for political or
other reasons.

Here you go again, insinuating that I somehow support the harassing of the little girl. Where I come from, we not only abhor the harassing of
children, we also take particular offence to women being beaten.

You have the right to be wrong in your opinions (American or not) but not in your facts.

[tongue-in-cheek]
And exactly who is the character that riped the sign? Is he really a Democrat? How come the camera was right at that point?

Maybe it's all a republican stunt!!!

Who knows?

If you belive that it was a missle that hit the Pentagon, then you should accept the theory that the whole thing is a staged event!

according to the union organizer's he was a democratic union member who will be disciplined by the head of the union. It was not a Republican stunt.
You dems are all the same, never take the blame when one of your ilk does something wrong.

And you republicans are all the same, completely lacking a sense of humor.

We have a right to a peaceful assembly and with that right, parents, along with their children should be able to attend demonstrations and rallies,
pro or con, without the heckling that this child has endured.

Either party members should show maturity at these gatherings so that our chilren can learn about the due process of our government. We teach our
children to do what we believe is right as soon as they start communicating, not later, unless we would have them to grow up ingorant.

Children not allowed at rallies? That's crock! That's the same as saying, don't take your children to church because they're to young to make a
choice and can't make decisions on their own.

What's going to happen now? Will the liberals try to push for laws that outlaw those who are under 18 from attending rallies and church? They may not
be able to vote, but they sure have the ability to learn.

And what this child has learned in this photo, is that people at Democratic rallies are scary and mean!
